The newly launched redesign for this hotel has been impeccably executed. Every single space was beautiful. From reception, to the bar, to the rooms - tasteful details throughout. The location was also perfect - just a short 10 minute drive from downtown DC, located in a serene pocket of Alexandria. Looking forward to visiting this property again, as well as other aka locations in the States.
